If you need any introduction to Madonna, then may we be the first to welcome you to planet Earth. We hope you enjoy your stay. The Queen of Pop has reinvented herself dozens of times in order to stay on top of her game, but it all started for her in the New York club scene of the 1980s.
It may be hard to imagine now, but Madonna was once a niche performer whose music only appealed to club-goers. It took a remix of her first album from then-boyfriend John Benitez to achieve her first top ten hit with 'Holiday,' and it was all plain sailing from there. By the time the 80s were out she'd released 'Like a Virgin,' 'Like a Prayer,' 'Express Yourself' and 'Material Girl.' She'd also hit cinema screens in 'Who's That Girl' and 'Desperately Seeking Susan.' During the era, the only bigger entertainer in the world was Michael Jackson.
